#TBT - "The Video Entertainers" when Lisa was just 14 years old!

22/5/2014

Johnnie Hamp was probably the equivalent of Simon Cowell of his heyday and a well known TV producer who was with the Granada Group for over 30 years. Most of that time, he was Granada TV's Head of Light Entertainment . He displayed an impressive range of associations, from the early days of "The Beatles" to the later days of "Spike Milligan" while taking in such illustrious names as "Count Basie", "Woody Allen", "Alfred Hitchcock", and our very own Lisa Stansfield along the way.

Here’s a rare gem of a clip of our Lisa, introduced by Johnnie Hamp himself for Granada TV 80's show called "The Video Entertainers". This is one of Lisa’s very first appearances on British TV.
singing her version of Randy Crawford - “One Day I'll Fly Away”. Thankfully, she never flew away in that lovely shiny spacesuit....!

It was not easy being in two places at once. So Lisa's performance had to be
pre-recorded earlier in the week before heading off on tour. Here's Lisa and the bands' "live" performance of "So Be it" as well as "Change" on the Aled Jones "Weekend" show this morning.

"Women Of The World Festival" interview in Frankfurt, Germany

9/5/2014

During Lisa's stop over in Germany, she had time to catch up with some promotional interviews.
This one was with the organisers of the "Women Of The World Festival" in Frankfurt (with a free bit of advertising by Lisa for "Creme 21" - quite an amusing finish to this)

interview for Australian TV channel 9.

7/5/2014

Lisa was dashing around from her tour rehearsals and her busy schedule continued into the late evening and straight into another interview for Australian TV channel 9.
Lisa spoke candidly to Morning's David Campbell and Sonia Kruger on Wednesday.

'There was a period in music that didn't suit what I did. I didn't fit in,' said the throaty voiced,
raven-haired beauty on Australia's popular morning show.

'When I make an album I love to spend a long time making it and put my heart and soul into it. I was waiting for things to come around, I had my toe in the door and hopefully I've got my whole leg in now.'
The ballsy singer who got her big break aged 14 on talent show Search for a Star said the lyrics to her famous song were a love story between herself and her husband and producer Ian Devaney and they never expected it to be search a hit.
'You know that something is good but you never really know how good. You always underestimate how much of an impact something is going to have,' said the Manchester-born popstar.
The couple were back in the studio for her latest record and in her typical blunt northern fashion, Lisa revealed the pair's unique creative process.
'I don't mind Ian telling me something that I've done is rubbish. I'll be on the vocals and he'll be like "Nah, it was rubbish that Lisa", we've known each other for so long"

'We've bonded in different aspects really.' Lisa who recently played a gig at London's G-A-Y is set to continue her European tour, she kicked off a months tour tomorrow 8th May in Zurich.

#TBT - This day in 1993 Lisa was No.1 in the charts with George Michael

1/5/2014

On Easter Monday 20th April 1992 The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert (for AIDS Awareness) was held at London's Wembley Stadium, in front of an audience of 72,000 which was broadcast live on television and radio to 76 countries around the world, with an audience of up to one billion.
The concert was a tribute to the life of the late Queen frontman, Freddie Mercury, with all proceeds going to AIDS research. The profits from the concert were used to launch The Mercury Phoenix Trust AIDS charity organisation.

On that day back in 1992, Lisa sang a duet with George Michael on "These Are the Days of Our Lives" (written by Queen drummer Roger Taylor). One year later, in April 1993 an EP of Lisa Stansfield and George Michaels performances with Queen were released as "Five Live".
On this very day, 1st May 1993 it went straight in at No.1 where it remained for 3 weeks.
